Prevalence of the Victimization and the Perpetration of Intimate Partner Violence Among the Patients From Puy-de-Dôme and Paris Consulting or Being Hospitalized for Addiction Problems and Their Expectations From General Practitioners (VIA-MG)

Intimate partner violence and addictions are two frequent problematics with many consequences on health. A link between intimate partner violence and addictions has been found in many studies. Being a drug user increases the risk to be a perpetrator and also a victim of intimate partner violence. So, it is legitimate to question ourselves about the prevalence of the victims and perpetrators of intimate partner violence among the patients consulting or being hospitalized for an addiction problem. We believe that this prevalence will be high among these patients. On the other hand, the general practitioners are in first line receiving victims and perpetrators of violence and patients with addiction problems. So it is important to know the profiles of these patients and their expectations from their general practitioners.
